Omelettes, Quiches & Frittatas

I know this is a tad late; but "Happy New Year" to all of you piggies in the healthy blender world. I hope you all had a s'blended holiday season, and that 2011 brings health, happiness, and an abundance of opportunities to fulfill your soul's purpose. At least, that is what I am hoping for myself!
